Saxo Introduces Futures Spread Trading

Denmark (ots/PRNewswire)

Saxo Bank, the online trading and investment specialist, is further enhancing its product portfolio for its retail and institutional clients through the introduction of futures spread trading.

From 18 February, clients will be able to trade futures spreads on a variety of assets across all of Saxo Bank's platforms, including its SaxoTrader mobile apps for smartphone and tablets. The introduction of this product to Saxo Bank's offering enables its clients to trade intramarket futures spread as well as named calendar futures spreads on a range of key contracts including gold, oil and other commodities, interest rates, bonds and major stock indices.

One of the key attractions of futures spread trading is the ability to use a single order ticket to roll over your Futures contracts before expiry to the next maturity date, with no legging risk or spread risk.

Patrice Henault, Futures and Listed Options Product Manager at Saxo Bank, commented:

"A calendar spread is defined as the sale of one or more contracts and the purchase of one or more offsetting futures contracts in the same market but in different a month, for example Short September Corn and Long December Corn. The calendar spread trader positions himself between the speculator and the hedger. Rather than take risk of excessive price fluctuations, he takes on the risk in the difference between two different trading months. Calendar spreads are less volatile than other forms of trading including share trading, option trading and straight futures trading. In fact, it is because of such low volatility that margins for spreads are so low. Spreads typically trend more often, more steeply and for a longer time than do other forms of trading".
